從前有個私塾老師，在桌上擺著個泥娃娃。每次講完課，老師就出去抽菸，讓學生們在教室裡寫作業。每次臨走時，他就會對著泥娃娃說：「你給我看好了，到底是哪個調皮鬼在課堂上胡鬧，我回來要問你。」
老師一離開，有些調皮的，就開始嬉笑打鬧。
Once upon a time, there was a private teacher with a clay doll on the table. Every time after class, the teacher goes out to smoke and asks the students to do their homework in the classroom. Once he left, he would speak to the clay doll, 『Please be remember, which naughty boy is disobey the rule in class, I will ask you when I come back.』
As soon as the teacher left,Some of them were naughty and began to play.
老師回來後，先檢查他布置的作業。看完，心裡已經有底了，低下頭，故意問泥娃娃，今天誰不老實了。然後，將耳朵貼在泥娃娃的嘴邊，一邊點頭一邊看著學生們。孩子畢竟還小，搗蛋過的孩子心裡一慌張，臉上就流露出來。這時老師就會直起身子，點頭說：「好，我聽明白了，搗蛋最厲害的就是傑克、湯姆……」於是，老師將他們叫到跟前，不多不少，每人打三下手心。
When the teacher comes back, he checks homework first.He has known in his heart after checking. He look down and ask clay doll deliberately. Who is not honest today. Then, put the ear to the mouth of the doll, nodding and looking at the students.
After all, the child is still young. The troublemaker's heart is flustered and his face shows. At this time, the teacher would straighten up, nod and say: "OK, I understand. The naughtiest are Jack and Tom ……" As a result, the teacher called them to the front, and punished them a little .
有一天，老師又出去抽菸了，想到泥娃娃會「告密」，幾個皮大王氣不打一處來，他們就攛掇納斯瑞丁，叫他把泥娃娃砸了，並許諾只要砸了，他們就請他吃好吃的。
納斯瑞丁想了想，說：「行，說話算話啊！」說完，將泥娃娃放在地上，拿起老師的板子，一下子，把泥娃娃打碎了。
One day, the teacher went out to smoke again. Thinking of the "whistle blowing" of the clay doll, several naughty boys were angry. They urged Nasreddin to smash the clay doll and promised that as long as he smashed the clay doll, they would invite him to eat delicious food.
Nasreddin thought for a moment and said, "OK, don't break your promise" after then ， he put the clay doll on the ground, pick up the teacher's board and broke the clay doll at once .
老師回來後，發現泥娃娃碎了，就問：「這泥娃娃怎麼碎的？」
納斯瑞丁說：「老師，是我打碎的。」老師一愣，就問：「為什麼要打碎它？」
納斯瑞丁理直氣壯地說：「因為它說老師的壞話。」
老師氣呼呼地問：「胡說，一個泥娃娃怎麼會說話呢？」
納斯瑞丁就等老師這句話，立即反問：「泥娃娃不會說話，怎麼你每次回來都問它？」
When the teacher came back, he found that the clay doll was broken. He asked, "how did the clay doll break?"
Nasreddin said, ' I broke it ，teacher.' "Why did you do so?" the teacher asked .
Nasreddin said bluntly, 'Because it badmouth teacher.'
The teacher asked angrily, "Bullshit, how can a clay doll talk?"
Nasreddin, just waiting for the teacher's words . So he immediately talked back and asked， 'Clay doll can't speak. Why do you ask him every time when you come back?'
